Tyranid Termagaunt

Found this model the other night with the base colours sprayed on with airbrush. I guess I did the airbrushing about a year ago and left it there. Anyway 50 minutes of painting and then the following evening about 15 minutes of final touches and the base and there is another model finished. Not to the greatests of standards, but I enjoyed getting the creature done in the colours and style that I wanted.

I used a mix of Citadel washes, some zombicide washes from Army Painter, white, bubonic brown (Yup! -g ot a bottle of that old Citadel classic!), and W&N red ink. Oh, and boltgun metal for the claws. All in all fun with a few colours and another model to go on the shelf.

Haven't done a lot of these myself. This is probably my 2nd or 3rd Termagaunt. I treated the beast as half chore, half painting for fun. Or rather, I really just wanted to produce something and the model was available (primed up and ready, basecolour already sprayed on) and I was confident that I could get it finished within the time I had. Awsome experience. Start - go - finish. On the shelf he goes.

ABOUT

I work a lot with the same models, moods, even the same bits. Miniatures and bits in particular are part of my 3D language. Sculpting and painting adds more signs to the work or TEXT as some might call it.

This is a place for me to share and discuss modelling and miniature painting projects. My own projects as well as miniatures and works/texts from where I find inspiration.
